Apple Tree Connections
The Outback
Our Outback is where children start to really verbalize more and begin putting words
together. They also are determined to do things on their own, so we encourage
self-help skills as appropriate. Their personalities really come out at this stage and they
love to keep busy with dancing, running, or playing other games. They also begin
working on potty training, which is a very exciting time. A daily schedule and learning
centers are also incorporated at this age, which help to promote following routines and
independence.
